Or is that a waste of a nice bit of beef and I should stop being lazy and roast it properly?

It is a "Tesco Finest beef roasting joint" from the meat counter - no actual indication of what part of the cow it was.

It is a bit of a waste to cook it like that. How much did it cost? The 'waste' effect is only that a cheap cut would taste the same as your posh one, you could have spent a lot less...
Is it a time thing?

I think it was on offer to make it £7 per kilo which is not a lot for beef. It might say "Finest" but I don't think it's actually posh. :o

Bung it in then!
I always roast beef very hot for a short time- sort of walk it through a warm room. Everything else I slow cooker.

It's in :)

If I knew what kind of cut it was I'd be more inclined to roast it (with good instructions from someone trustworthy).

It was lovely and FIL kept saying how nice it was. I put lots of salt and pepper on top.
